HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus. It harms the immune system by destroying the white blood cells that fight infection. This puts at risk for serious infections and certain cancers.
Disease: Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection, HIV, (NCT03164135)

Frequency:
Worldwide, there were about 1.7 million new cases of HIV in 2018. About 37.9 million people were living with HIV around the world in 2018, and 23.3 million of them were receiving medicines to treat HIV, called antiretroviral therapy (ART).

Description
The investigators performed this study to evaluate the safety and feasibility of transplantation with CRISPR-Cas9 CCR5 gene modified CD34+ hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells for patients that develop AIDS and hematological malignances. Patients will be treated with antiviral therapy (ART) to achieve undetectable HIV-1 virus in peripheral blood before conditioning. CD34+ cells from donors will be infused into the patients after treatment with CRISPR-Cas9 to ablate CCR5 gene.
